Disability Swimming is a Paralympic Sport and is an extremely popular activity amongst disabled people.

If you are interested in competing and you have completed a tracker form, you will need to become classified in order to compete against swimmers of the same ability, this process is called classification

Further competitive opportunities can be found on the Competition calendar.
 
If you are a disabled person and interested in becoming a swimming teacher, coach or aquafit instructor please contact Janna.
